	  <h2>Configuring Export</h2>
      <ul>
        <li>
          <b>Circuits:</b> A list where you can select one or more circuits that should be exported into image files. (Empty circuits are not displayed as options.)
        </li>
        <li>
          <b>Image Format:</b> You can create PNG, GIF, JPEG, TikZ and SVG files. I would recommend PNG files: The GIF format is quite dated, and the JPEG format will introduce artifacts into the image, as the JPEG format is really meant for photographic images.
        </li>
        <li>
          <b>Scale Factor:</b>You can scale the images as they are dumped into image files using this slider.
        </li>
        <li>
          <b>Printer View:</b>Style of the image produced with either the stat information or only the schema.
        </li>
       <p align="center">

        </p>
		This option is also available in "<a href="../prefs/pref-layout.html">Print view:</a>" in the export of circuits. This will change the display in the workspace.
      </ul>
      <p>
        After clicking <b class="button">OK</b>, Logisim will display a file selection dialog box. If you have selected one circuit, select the file into which the image should be placed. If you have selected multiple circuits, select a directory where the files should be placed; Logisim will name the images based on the circuits' names (<tt>main.png</tt>, for example).
